[Gmail TIP] How to avoid IP tracking (means to confirm email receipt) in Gmail

Some of the messages received by Gmail can be exposed to your computer's IP information or other information (such as which browser you use, what mail app you use, IP address information, etc.) without knowing it at the moment you read it. .

When receiving e-mail, you may be tracked to the sender's IP (if you send your computer's IP unintentionally when you receive the e-mail).

Fortunately, the Gmail system provides a way to prevent other parties from secretly tracking caller IP.

There is a technology that email service systems use as a way to determine whether a recipient has read the mail they send. After inserting an invisible image (pixel) in an e-mail message, when the mail contents are opened, the image is accessed and the recipient's IP address is tracked to obtain the location information.

Gmail can let you decide whether or not you want to selectively display the images included in your mail content, in a way that prevents you from inadvertently tracking IP addresses. If there is a suspicious image in the text, the image can be suppressed.

Therefore, if you do not want the sender of the email (including email system users other than Gmail users) to accept the mail receipt request, you can suppress the images included in the body text.

To disable automatic display of external images in Gmail, you can do this in Gmail -> Settings ->General-> Images.



In this case, when the mail sender sends an e-mail asking to confirm receipt of the e-mail without knowing it, the following indication is displayed when receiving e-mail from Gmail.

If there is only text in the message body, but "Images are not displayed, it is likely that this message is the message that the other person has requested to acknowledge whether the message is opened or not. In this case, you do not have to display the image if you do not want to be notified of your receipt status.


In Gmail, the images contained in the message body provide a means of tracking outbound IP, or provide a number of security mechanisms to block information hacking using image insertion. For more information on this, please refer to the articles provided by Google.

Claude AI プロンプトエンジニアリング: 核心概念と実践方法

  Claude AI プロンプトエンジニアリング: 核心概念と実践方法 生成AIのためのプロンプトエンジニアリングは、生成AIとの効果的なインタラクションを通じて望ましい結果を得るためのプロセスです。 良いプロンプトエンジニアになるためには、次のような能力が必要です: 1.明確なコミュニケーション能力 。 例文: クロード、私は今、1つのブログポストを作成しているんだ。 テーマは「日常で簡単に実践できる環境保護の方法」だ。 ポストの構成は、序論-本論-結論で構成され、総文字数は1500文字前後で、読者に親しみやすくなるように、文体は堅苦しくなく、柔らかい感じに書いてくれ」。 プロンプトで記事のテーマ、構造、分量、文体などを具体的に明示することで、生成型AIが希望する方向に記事を生成できるよう、明確なガイドラインを提供しています。 2.反復作業をコツコツと行う意欲 。 例示: 最初のプロンプト - "クロード、私のために'春のピクニック'をテーマにした詩を書いてくれる?" 2番目のプロンプト - "詩の雰囲気をもっと軽快に変えて、青系で締めてくれる?" 3番目のプロンプト - "詩の3~4行目に、春のピクニックに行くときに聴きやすい音楽を推薦する内容を追加してくれる?" 同じテーマの詩を対象に、プロンプトを少しずつ修正しながら、生成型AIと繰り返しインタラクションすることで、ユーザーが望む方向に詩を完成させていきます。 3.プロンプトが間違っている可能性がある場合を考慮する能力 。 例: 「クロード、これから架空のインタビュー記事を書いてみよう。 架空の人物Aは「理想の職場の上司」に選ばれたんだ。 Aさんをインタビューしていると思って、Aさんが理想的な上司に選ばれた理由を5つくらいあげて記事を書いてくれ。 ただし、もし私が「男性」または「女性」と言わなかったら性別を言わないで、もしAさんの業種を言わなかったら、具体的な業種を書かないで自然に記事を書いてくれ。 プロンプトで曖昧になる可能性のある部分(性別、業種など)への配慮を事前に言及することで、プロンプトが意図しない方向に解釈される可能性を事前に遮断しています。 4.正直さ、ペルソナ、比喩の使用 。 例文: "クロード、私は今、大...
